Thanks for your comment about my car-failure adventure. I will ask the shop proprietor about the luck charms.
I have read that blue glass eye charms are common among Greek, Armenian and other Middle-Eastern people. The owner of the car shop in N. Hollywood was, I think, Armenian. Of course, his mechanics were both Armenian and Mexican.
So I think the charms were an amalgamation of Mexican, Central American, and Armenian. But who knows for sure? I will ask him about them when I pick up the car.
But isn't it a cool thing about a culturally mingled city like LA?
I will write later about the nightclub across the street from the Armenian car repair shop in North Hollywood!!!!!
Dad. Is he watching Father of the Bride again or giving you fabulous direction such as "over there," "that way?"
ReplyDeleteHahahahahaha!
ReplyDeleteNew glasses. I tried on a pair and think I damaged my own eyes. Yikes - they're strong.
My quintessential "Christmas Carol" is the Mr. Magoo version, because it's the first one I ever saw as a kid.
